Cohesion policy is key to defending democracy.
By investing in infrastructure, innovation & inclusion, it counters disinformation not just with facts—but with impact.
Real progress builds real trust.

@EU_Commission Spain 🇪🇸 has earmarked around €863 million in #CohesionPolicy funding for disaster prevention and preparedness. This would support measures that aim to prevent and prepare for climate-related risks, including floods, landslides, fires, storms, and droughts.
@EU_Commission With #RESTORE, the proposed changes will provide Member States to use #EUfunds to repair infrastructure and equipment damaged by disasters, provide food and basic material assistance, ensure access to healthcare, and to temporarily support the financing of short-time work schemes
There are several EU tools and instruments to support Spain 🇪🇸 with post-flood recovery. With regards of #CohesionPolicy, we have the European Union Solidarity Fund #EUSF and the new #RESTORE proposal. Let’s have a look at them 🧵
